How to get

That cursed and costly motorists' bugaboo, the pothole, is a major spring concern to State Department of Highways and Public Transportation maintenance forces. Starting when waler seeps into a crack in the road surface, maturing in the freeze-thaw cycles of a cold, wet winter, Texas potholes pop out almost faster than maintenance crews can repair them.
But department crews are taking the offensive by putting in extra efforts on every dry day and in the use of innovative equipment.
The department's Abilene district, for instance, is using a “port-a-palcher," a mobile recycling machine that makes pothole-patching material on the spot by using old chunks of pavement. It also saves energy — the asphaltic material is made from petroleum — in addition to permitting a speed and flexibility badly needed by maintenance forces.
An even easier method is to prevent potholes Through frequent resurfacing of highways. But no slate in the nation has sufTicient funds to undertake such a program.
Potholes are cursed by the motorist when he examines a bent wheel or ruined tire or when he pays for a wheel alignment. They should also be roundly berated for the extra fuel they cause to be used — motorists slow down or slop to-avoid them or lake a longer route because of them and make that extra trip to a mechanic. •
Texas has plenty of potholes after the past winter, although not the 8.2 million recently estimated by The Road Information Program in

a nationally publicized report. That's 114 in every single mile of the 72,000-mile state system. Highway maintenance men point out that TRIP estimators simply took the total amount of asphaltic material bought by the department and divided that figure by the amount needed to repair the average pothole — if there is such a thing. However, the estimators forgot that much oRhe material purchased by the department was used to resurface long sections of Texas highways.

which credited that slate with 1 4 million such road pioblems. One resident of that northeastern-state said there were more potholes in one Maine county than in all of Texas. He further suggested that Texans didn't know how to count potholes — that they were undoubtedly counting every pothole, even those less than 5 inches deep and 16 inches wide.
But no matter how they are measured and counted, potholes in Texas and the nation cost millions of dollars to repair — and more millions in
